A paper on " Some Luminous Coleoptera from Ceylon," by 

 E. Ernest Green, F.E.S., was read by Mr. C. J. Gahan, 

 who in illustration of the paper exhibited male examples of 

 Ilarmatelia bilinea, Walk., and males and a female of Dioptoma 

 adamsi, Pasc, two of the species referred to. Also both sexes 

 of a new species of Dioiotoma which he proposed to name 

 Dioptoma greeni. This species was found at higher altitudes 

 in Ceylon than D. adamsi, and was distinguished from it by 

 the colour and form of the elytra, these organs being entirely 

 black in colour, and more elongate and less narrowed behind 

 than in D. adamsi. The species had been obtained by Mr. 

 Green at Maskeliya, and by Mr. Lewis at Dikoya and 

 Bogawantalawa.
